Ratings and Reviews
Great
I love this app. Some tiny annoying features, like the fact that the list of authors can't be hidden while you are reading the text.
It would also be great if you could highlight the text with colours. I would LOVE it if the app remembered every word that you looked up and saved them in a list for you to revise from later. As a classics student that would be super helpful.
Overall, best app ever and wish there was a Latin version!!!
Developer Response ,
Valid points, all! Sorry to report that the genius volunteer programmer has a day job.. We hope you can still enjoy, and in time forgive, the no-frills version:-)
Marvellous
A wonderful app. I am reading Medea right now. I use the app for vocabulary and turn to my commentary book for explanations. Makes things so much faster. It will definitely be my constant companion when reading Greek. A Latin one would be nice too. I have written an app myself - not to do with languages - so I fully appreciate the hard work which went in to producing this.
Attikos Greek text reading app
This is a superbly constructed app which advertises its capabilities with utmost accuracy. It puts a number of canonical texts right at your fingertips with enough help one click away to be able to read without recourse to another dictionary.
Great stuff indeed.
